What is your thinking behind "the country is getting worse?" What is the threshold between "it is bad but ill carry on" and " I need to move out?" What are the factors?

Genuinly interested as these types of decisions are immensly interesting.

Reasons why I am thinking my country is getting worse:

1) Currency. Its value just keep sinking.

2) Safety. What I fear the most is terrorism. There are a bunch of people in the name of religion doing scary things at night just because they think you're wrong. But cops don't care. I honestly never saw cops fight those people. It's scary.

3) Government. Something is wrong here. Even if next year we will have a presidential election, I don't think it'll make things better.

1. You can use this to your advantage. You can set a lower bid online freelance work. As long as you can get paid in US$ and convert it, you will be making more money than if you moved.

2. Can't help you there.

3. This is a problem pretty much all over. Everyone has a different opinion about it,but I believe globalization has caused a dramatic increase in competition, which creates stress, leading people to act irrational and short sighted. Cooler heads will prevail.

I'm not trying to convince you to stay, just to use what resources you do have.
